Dáil Éireann Debate, Friday - 16 September 2016
765. Deputy Michael Healy-Rae asked the Minister for Social Protection the status of an application for a disability allowance in respect of a person (details supplied); and if he will make a statement on the matter. [25683/16]
View answerThe person concerned has been awarded disability allowance with effect from 11 May 2016. The first payment will issue by her selected payment method on 5 October 2016.
Arrears of payment due will issue as soon as possible once any necessary adjustment is calculated and applied in respect of any overlapping payments or in respect of outstanding overpayments (if applicable).
I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
